Streatham's new 'open access' theatre company

Streatham will take centre stage next week with the launch of its own theatre group.

The Streatham Theatre Company has been created by local residents, including actors, directors, producers, writers, technicians and others who have a passion for the performing arts.

The Company aims to create opportunities for people in the area to gain real life theatre experience and practical skills across all aspects of creating and staging productions, such as writing, directing, lighting, sound, costume and make-up as well as acting. The group is open to all - theatre novices and theatre professionals.

Streatham Theatre Company’s first production will be performed at the Streatham Festival in July (11-14). Bernie C. Byrnes who brings considerable professional theatre experience (as writer, director and actor) will be directing the production.

If you have always had a desire to ‘tread the boards’ or to help ‘behind the scenes’, and would like to join the group or get involved with the production then contact info@streathamtheatre.org.uk, come to the launch event on 19th April at 7.30pm at The White Lion, or telephone 020 3432 5710.

Even if you don’t want to take part in productions, the company also plans to hold regular social events, with readings, quizzes etc.
